Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata Is A Complete Striker – Carlo Ancelotti

Ancelotti knows Morata well having been coach of Real Madrid, although he didn’t play him regularly.

He said, “Morata is a fantastic young striker. I think Chelsea have a really good signing because he is a player that can help the team to be better.”

He added, “He is a complete striker and can play in different positions.

”In my time at Real Madrid he played in the centre of the attack and sometimes on the side. He is a striker that works a lot for the team,” Ancelotti said.

Bayern’s new loan signing, James Rodriguez also played with him at the Bernabeu and added: “I think he is an amazing player, he will do very well with Chelsea. With the minutes he had at Real Madrid, he did amazing things. I wish him very well.” He concluded.

The Blues have landed Morata for an initial £58m fee which could rise to £70m, and the Spain international has been earmarked to replace the outgoing Diego Costa as first-choice striker.

Ancelotti fears Chelsea will put up a great challenge for Champions League title for 2017/2018 season.
